lyrics

You sure know, how to take a bow
A blast of light while you leave the stage
Memories are swirling in, mesmerizing
Black sails set on a sea of clouds

And I will try not to weep
While hearts of stone skip a beat
And I will try not to mourn
I know you'd say it 's such a bore

When you were starting to sing
Cold distant stars were closin in
Maybe you just fell asleep
Cause I can hear you whispering

So long, shouldn't have happened to you
I'm gonna miss you major Tom

I've seen you fishing in the river of words
Felt the silence at the eye of the scream
This white hair panic attack, and how you dealt with it
t'was so fantastic

The shade of a father by the light of the moon
A whisper of love as you drop your costume
And wave bye-bye from the deck of this ship
Then you're gone

Though I will try not to weep
Your smile is cutting in so deep
I swear you sent me a wink
Then moved on through these spectral winds

So long, captain, I bet you were not afraid anymore
As you sailed towards dawn
So long, shouldn't have happened to you
I'm gonna miss you major Tom

I'm gonna miss you, Ziggy, White Duke
Wherever you are
I'm gonna miss you, Nathan, David,
whoever you are
Whatever you are, my black star
I'm gonna miss you
